Trifari Poured Glass Flower...Name of flower?

Isn't there a name for this flower? I asked on this a long time ago.

I saved it but can't access my old computer and I cannot find that thread.

This one has 25 petals. I know there are names for the smaller ones.

Thanks for any help.

 

When I list, should I use "poured glass" and "milk glass" in the title?

Be sure and spell the name of the flower correctly in your listing.  It's CAMILLA with a double l.  Not "camila."

Actually, it's something in between -

CAMELLIA !

 

(I think Camilla is somebody's stepmother, lol)

Pâte de verre is another form of kiln casting and literally translated means glass paste. In this process, finely crushed glass is mixed with a binding material, such as a mixture of gum arabic and water, and often with colourants and enamels.  Hope this helps.  And again good luck with your brooch

I just want to make one small correction here.  Alfred Philippe designed items for Trifari, he did not make things for Trifari.  There is a difference.  

Though the beauty may be in the butterfly, the struggle and growth occur in the cocoon.
